What’s with these really crappy #animated #GIF on @tumblr?

its like going back to the dark days of 1999

have the current crop of designers forgotten how to make smooth transitions? The images all seem to jump annoyingly from their last frame to the first
Maybe I’m getting too old (or they’re too inexperienced)?

Let’s be clear:
– I dont care if it’s designed to attract attention
– it looks amateur

(that’ll be GIF pronounced ‘giff’ not ‘jiff’, a hard ‘G’ as for ‘graphic’ 😉 )
